Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I use either the heavy ceramic crock type bowls, or the "tip-proof" dog bowls. If you don't use something either heavy enough or tip-proof, it seems like someone is constantly spilling their water, and I'm constantly changing papers in the tubs.
Here's an exampleof the "tip-proof" type bowls, though most of the ones I use are plastic. They are so much lighter than the ceramic dishes, and haven't had a snake that can spill em yet!

I use dog water bowls. I cruies garage sales and swap meets and every time I see a dog feed dish cheap I buy it. Better to have too many bowls than not enough. I've probably got a couple hundred bowls now.......maybe I should stop buying bowls everytime I see them now.

LOL, I buy them in bulk from the local farm store....I get the big, taller tip-proof bowls for I think 99 cents each.
I have a ton of other bowls, (bins full of them, lol) but have pretty much gone to all those, replacing the ceramic ones as I drop and break the darn things.

Yeah, I have some like that too! The very best bedding I've found for them not being able to do that is the Sani-Chips. I REALLY like those, but do have a little bit harder time keeping my humidity up in the winter using them.

I use the overpriced pet store granite bowls (I know, but they all match and I don't need very many).
I used to use a 2 gallon rubbermaid plastic dish for my 9' BCI because she could soak in it, but 10 minutes after I put water in it, it's on its side again, so enough of that.

I use deli cups for water bowls in all but my biggest boas. They get the unspillable doggy bowls. What's nice about the deli cups is that I don't ever have to wash them. Just toss them and get a new one.

Tupperware
I use large Tupperware that's tall enough the snake can't tip it, but short enough to leave plenty of room for the snake to access the dish to soak.
